Introduction:
- Mainly located in Canada or upper parts of Asia and Europe.
- Located in northern latitudes
Definition:
- Taiga is known as the boreal forest and is a biome characterized by coniferous forests.
Map of biome:
Biotic Factors (animals, plants, algae, etc. living things):
- wolves, deers, bears, lynx, cougars, moose, cyotes.
- There aren't many species of trees, only eight. Most of the trees in the taiga produce pine.
Abiotic Factors (rain, wind, temperature, location, soil quality, seasons):
- Cold and dry
- 25-27 centimeters of rain per year
- Cold, snowy winters
- Warm summers
- The temp. is below freezing for 6 months.
Additional Info. (any famous landmarks, famous types of your biome ex- Sahara Desert, anything well-known in biome, how is biodiversity, etc. make it interesting!!)
- The woodland caribou may become extinct
- Logging is destroying their homes and they are finding it difficult to find a place to live.
- Over-hunting is another problem
- Fires are also a cause
